OBJECTIVES
To gain knowledge of simple stresses, strains and deformation in components due to external
loads.
To assess stresses and deformations through mathematical models of beams, twisting bars or
combinations of both.
Effect of component dimensions and shape on stresses and deformations are to be understood.
